  • Great game but..

    Love the game really fun, I love the tournaments. Every time it’s creative and I love when the levels reflect certain holidays. My only issue is recently with this last update I’ve noticed I’m not getting my rewards when I complete a level and get 3 stars. I should be getting 8 coins each time and it shows that I should get it but my coins never update to show the new amount. It’s really annoying, I think I’m owed over 50 extra coins that I never got at this point.

    Edit: This is like a year later and still having the same issues the coins I should have. Now none of the coins I earn are updating into my “bank”, it keeps playing the little clip where the coins get added up at the end of the weekly challenge over and over and over but when I try to use them while playing a level, my coins aren’t there. Get it together developers my god!

  • Pay to Win

    This is classic, old-school bird-flinging fun. Be aware: “Friends” is a pay to win setup. In tournament mode, levels are filled with extra points (diamonds, etc.) for those who are willing to constantly buy power-ups…and there is ALWAYS someone willing to spend more money than you. In regular mode, some levels are impossible to get 3 stars without power-ups, especially as you get higher up the tower. I don’t begrudge them making a profit. This gets spendy fast if you care about your place on the leaderboard. I’d rather pay $10 for the game and have it be purely based on skill.

    I’ve been playing AB since it came out. This version is fun and uses the original physics of the game. Wish they’d also bring back the orbital and modified physics from Space and Star Wars.

  • greedy dishonest and infuriating

    Powerups are anything but, just money spent for nothing. They charge way too much for them, then literally make them useless. The block of dynamite that won’t go off no matter how many things land right on it, or if thrown into a bunch of blocks will only destroy itself. Wingman that should be able to destroy a line of wood or glass blocks stops after two and just spins till it disappears. Close the app and when you come back you will have lost some of them, and clear the whole screen of every single thing but still be a hundred thousand points from the top score, how is that even possible? I am not a beginner nor stupid, I am a player, have won every tournament I have played, till now. I played this tournament for hours and every time, the power ups would not work or if they worked, my score at the end would be way lower than it was when I scored without any power ups.

    I have gone from liking this game to literally hating this game. I will never play another Rovio game.

  • Glitches

    The BEST games Rovio putout were the original Angry Birds and it’s clones: Seasons (my favorite), Space, and Rio.
    I had quit playing all the newer Rovio games, the ones that came out after Rovio was bought out, because they weren’t fun anymore. They were fancier, the programmers and animators worked very hard on them, but they weren’t FUN.
    After a few years I decided to try Rovio again (Covid shut-downs making me desperate?). This game, Friends, plays like those originals, and WOULD BE fun if …. If only they didn’t glitch. As a “for instance”, slowing down and/or freezing so that the level must be started over, or the best solution (like hitting a blinking light) doesn’t work, so a 3 star score isn’t possible.
    Come on, Rovio, you have had a chance. If I find one more glitchy level you’re done for another few years.
    P.S. To those players who complain about spending too much on power-ups…. I am an old lady -almost 80 years - have played 60 levels, and only on the horribly glitchy level 60 did I need a power-up to pass the level. In the latest tournament that I bothered to take part in, I was 3rd place with no power-up used.
    I advise you stop complaining about spending money and focus on improving your skills and strategy.

  • Still has major issues and bugs after years of updates

    I have been playing this stupid, money grubbing game for over 6 years, and they same goes for the last review I just read.
    Rovio absolutely does not care about fixing any of the issues I’ve reported over a dozen times.
    The spinning rewards wheel, for example- they “yeah, you get an extra spin per day”!
    Totally bs…more than half the time, you watch the stupid ad, then sometimes you get two spins like you’re supposed to, half the time not. Same with the supposedly three different free birds if you watch the ads- sometimes you get three, but more often than not, you only get two.

    You can switch back and forth more than a dozen times before you see the third free bird and then it just disappears.
    Same goes for the three “free” birds in the coin section…very “sneaky”- sometimes you click back and forth over and over again, but you still probably only get 2 free birds, even if you sit through the ads.
    Beyond frustrating!
    Shutting down the app, rebooting your iPhone, none of these things fix the problems and issues.

    Total waste of time and money.
    I totaled it up and I was spending over $3000 a year!
    I was only compensated once for a bundle I bought and paid for and didn’t get.

    Horrible Customer Service and Tech Support to boot.

    Save your money and your lives!
    STAY AWAY- TRUST ME…it’s not worth the thousands of dollars for this time wasting/ addiction game.
    Not worth it.

  • Fun to play, but Ad-greedy

    I do love to play this game, however lately they have been playing more and more ads. Now, in addition to the ads that are optional for you to watch to receive bonuses, etc., Now they shove ads down your throat and between the matches. It is one thing to consent to watching an ad to get an extra bonus, however being forced to watch ads on top of the other ads is getting to be a little too much. And many of the ads are not appropriate for all ages so if you have children playing this game, which I’m sure that they do, they will be exposed to inappropriate ads. They clearly do not care where the ad revenue comes from as long as they are shoving the ads down your throat continuously. Stop being so greedy, I’m sure you make enough money as it is, stop it with the unskippable ads!

  • Really good…but a bit bugged

    This game is really fun and even has some old features from the old AB games like the sound effects and extra points when you have some leftover birds , but it has some glitches one being that sometimes when you complete one level with three stars and then when you move on to the next level you don’t see any stars on the level but then again the game will correct it’s self when you complete the next level so it doesn’t matter too much (oh and they redesigned Hal for like the third time I mean second design was looked good to me so I don’t know why Rovio changed Hal again but it looks kinda ok I guess.)

  • Alright this game is kinda good

    This may be the closest game that we get to the classics and I like that but in case you did not know Rovio people like the old games WAY more than the ones we have now. This game is good overall though. But I think you would get WAY more downloads if you brought back the old classics like the first game, the Star Wars game, Angry birds Go! And the a lot more like Seasons, Angry Birds Epic! And Angry Birds Fight which I think at this point you guys forgot about the game but for real if you won’t do it for just 1 person then do it for the MILLIONS of people that prefer the classic games. Please Rovio I know you want to update the newer games I’m not saying to update them I’m just saying to bring them back but for now you won’t see me playing much angry birds

  • Major technical issues

    I do love angry birds. I used to play all the time. I recently downloaded the new app on my iPad and as before, I couldn’t stop playing! HOWEVER, several times when I have left the game to work, I come back and the game has put me BACK several levels. For example; I completed level 103 and when I went back later to play, it had me starting at level 97! The levels beyond 97 were
    LOCKED again. and this has happened a few times so if it continues I will have to delete the game because I don’t want to play the same levels over and over again. Not too happy considering this game has been around for long I feel this kind of error should not happen.

  • Star cup drama.

    I great game I love the tournament and the piggy tower. The only thing I can complain about is the star cup, the game will NOT let you get to a 6 streak under any circumstances. The early streak levels will be easy but then you will probably get squashed by the opponent from somewhere streak levels 4-6. One level I did great, the next I got slaughtered. The tournament is fun, you try to get the highest scores on level so you can rank higher in the league. It is hard to get in first but it is possible (with the aid of powerups). The piggy tower is also nice but it doesn’t last long, and some of the level are a pain to get three stars 😔.
